I concure with this course of action. Lets keep it as simple as possible. More complex rules just leave more room for interpretation. Best, tom Am 16.07.2007 schrieb Philip Sheppard:
I support Ross here. The simplest method of proxy voting will be best. Responsibility should lie with the Council member only to vote. If they are remiss, so be it. And of course if we introduce proxy votes then it would apply to all Council members.
I propose a simple resolution at our next meeting:
"The Council would like to introduce a system of proxy voting. Council requests the ICANN General Counsel to confirm EITHER that this is possible under the current by-laws and if not advise what by-law change would be needed to enable it"
